But that's your bailiwick, Corinna, not mine.
My bad. I missed the fact that Sergey has already removed the
"offending" man pages. I also missed that you had already suggested
that he do this. Problem solved.
Oh, just one other thing -- a minor stylistic issue with the
/etc/postinstall script. Personally, I don't like "magic morphing
scripts" that behave differently if they are in /etc/postinstall or in
/usr/bin. IMO, /etc/postinstall/sysvinit.sh shouldn't copy itself to
/usr/bin/init-config. Instead, the parts that are actually ACTIVE when
the script is in it's "init-config personality" should simply be
HERE-documented into a separate script in /usr/bin.
But that's purely my opinion; others may differ. It's definitely NOT a
showstopper.
Again, the ^^^^ is not a showstopper.
